A Little About Anna’s

“Start with a really good recipe, and then improve on it!” That was the idea we started with some 20 years ago, and that’s the advice we give to new soap makers today.

Anna’s EsSCENTials Bodycare has come to mean the best in quality and skin care in our part of Kentucky, as well as in the many parts of the world where our products have traveled.

Our recipe uses excellent oils first and foremost. And then we combine them with skincare herbs and additives. Finally we look to essential oils as a finishing touch.

Our soap studio is located on the second floor of an historic building that once housed the original telephone exchange in out tiny town of Owenton. A common compliment comes from townspeople passing on the street below and delighting in the scents wafting down from our big, old wavy-glass windows. It’s a good spot for soapmaking!

We promise you quality, healthful soap and body products at their best. Everything is vegan except for a bit of goat’s milk in a couple soaps, and an occasional dash of locally and responsibly harvested honey. And of course, these are cruelty-free products with no animal testing on any ingredients.
